Scottish 'Bacchae' Arrives at Lincoln Center

Nice article in the NYTimes about the National Theater of Scotland’s production of Euripides’ Greek classic, The Bacchae, which opens the Lincoln Center Festival on Wednesday. I'm very pleased also that the journalist focused more on the establishment of the National Theater of Scotland, rather than star-fucking Alan Cumming. Instead she points out how the Scottish press finger-bang-banged Cumming when he returned to Scotland after a 16-year absence (not unlike our dear friend, Dionysus).
